As, I'm sure that Gates would point, you're missing the point.  The
point isn't that you can't do a full Java implementation under
Windows.  The point is that when you *do* implement Jav, you get jav,
jAv, jaV, JAv, JaV, jAV and JAV for free.  Who needs that last 'a'
anyhow?  We all know what you're talking about. :-)
